027: Feeding Your Growing Family Well Without Going Broke with Erin Chase of $5 Dinners
Grocery budget hurting?
Erin Chase of $5 Dinners has been making inexpensive meals to save her family’s grocery budget since the real estate crisis of 2008. She says the current inflation problem is similar in how it’s making people feel about money and savings, and it’s TIME to pay attention to your food budget, no matter who you are.
In this episode, prepare to learn:
- How to stay ahead of the curve and adapt to the ever-changing world
- Why thinking about your dinner cost is even more important than finding a sale or thinking about what’s in your cart at the moment
- The most important part of the meal to focus on to cut costs
- How one appliance can make a huge difference in your planning
- Erin’s awesome four-step process to gradually let go and teach kids to cook
- How parents need to be intentional about teaching budgeting to kids (and it’s a lot more like raising toddlers than you think!)
We guarantee you’ll learn at least one (hopefully many!) hack to save time, money, or stress while you nourish your family!
Erin is a camp leader at #LifeSkillsNow summer camp, season 3, teaching kids how to make double the food in half the time – yum!
